Buddy's Beat

Lexie says I passed my thunderstorm test last night because I slept through the whole thing. She tells me some dogs freak out at loud noises like thunderstorms, but I didn't even notice it. Those things don't bother me. She tells me to wait until the kids go off to school in a few weeks and then all bring home more newfangled musical instruments and start trying to learn to play them. That will be Loud Noises Test, Part II. I have no fear. I put up with Lexie's loud (incessant?) barking, don't I?
